WHAT MAKESTHE COCA-COLA SUPERBOWL OF MOTOCROSS THE LARGEST AND MOST EXCITING MOTORCYCLE R EIN THE WORLD?
AC
THE TRACK IS TOUGHER TO RIDE AND MOREPUNIS ING TO MAN AND MACHINE THAN ANY OUTDOOR MOTOCROSS CAN EVER BEl
H
For example. on an outdoor course BERMS areformed in parts of SlIm
eturns. wherethebike tiresmaypush
upa 6 to 18 inch CURB ofdirt in some areas. where riders turn sharply to SlOUGH OFF a little speed. After
these berms are formed. It becomes easier for the riders to negotiate these particular turns.
BERMS
IntheCoca-C
olaSuperbowl of Motocross the berms are circular monsters molded by heavy equipment.before
any motorcycle has even set a wheel on thetrack! Themulti-lined ridingsurface is steeply banked atleast 45
degrees whlch. likethebankingat Daytona, pushes motorcycles and riders all the waythrough at maximum
speed, collapsing suspensioncomponentsandapplyingaforce of3G'stothe riders' bodies . . . and, there's no
shutting off halfway through- thepowerful centrifugal forces can launch bike and rideroverthe9foot berm
wall. crashingto thestadium floor below if you let off. Each berm isatotalcommittment towiringthe throttle
